My sons absolutely love coming there. I'm not sure what your staff does to make math so fun but my boys are athletes not schoarlors and they ask to go every Tuesday and Friday. I'm so glad we found you. My girlfriend and I have 6 boys that attend from grade 1 to 8th and we all go a few times a week and they can't wait to go again. I have had private tutors, group tutors, home tutors and this is the only place they all say in the morning before school drop off. We're going to Mathnasium today right!!!! Thank you

Before my daughter started at Mathnasium, she did not like math. There were gaps with her math skill and understand that I just don't know how to fill them. When my daughter started with Mathnasium, Angie knows exactly how and what area to focus on. A detail plan was given and surly my daughter progress beautifully. With just two hours a week for the past year, my daughter is all caught up and started to enjoy math. The best part is there is no homework and I no longer need to figure out which and why a particular area in math is troublesome for my daughter. My daughter tells me that she "needs" to go to Mathnsaium otherwise, math does not make sense for her.

I highly recommend it and could not be happier.

My son who is in 4th grade is thriving. He started with 4th grade math when he joined 6 months ago, but now he's almost done with 5th grade math. I like that the ratio of students to a tutor is small (but it depends on the time you attend) and they're flexible with schedule change. Also, according to my son, tutors explain concepts clearly and well. I'm pretty happy with my son's progress and my son's desire to continue Mathnasium says something about the quality of education they provide.

This center has given my kids so much confidence they didn't have before! Teachers are friendly and are very patient with all ages groups. My kids are always excited to come here and never complain to get to the car. We came here for remedial math and now we stay to keep always ahead of the class!

My daughter has been going to Mathnasium since the end of 8th grade. We knew that her middle school hadn't prepared her well in algebra or geometry, and we wanted to make sure that she'd be successful taking algebra 2 as a freshman and now precalculus as a sophomore. Jadelyn has been the perfect tutor--fun, insightful, efficient and clear in her ability to explain anything related to math, and my daughter is confident and getting A's. Thank you Angie for opening a center that has worked so well for us!

My seventh grade daughter has been attending Mathnasium for probably close to a year. She actually looks forward to attending Mathnasium, which says a lot. She loves the added benefit of being able to bring in her math homework or test material and get the help she needs to understand the material & prepare for an exam. I definitely feel like her math skills have improved a great deal, not to mention a remarkable increase of self-confidence in math. We refer people to Mathnasium all the time!!

Since my 12 year old has been going to Mathnasium, his standardized test scores have increased after a summer and regular math homework is much easier. His confidence has increased as well. We've had a great experience with Mathnasium and would recommend it.

After 3 years+ my kids still loves this place, no pressure, comfortable with the young instructors, they teach your child to love math and always welcome you even if sometimes you are a little bit late for your appointment they accommodate you and try their best! Great after school booster.

We love our Laurelwwod location! Jadelyn is awesome! Juta and Emily as well! Istructors are great, especially one that my son likes to work with: Andrew Lim (I think that's his last name). We would highly recommend this place to everyone!

Just LOVE how flexible and understanding you all are with scheduling, your friendly environment, how you create a love of learning for math, and your summer pricing. Also appreciate how open you are to feedback and to working with parents. Thank you!!

Front office personnel are very helpful and friendly. The tutors at the tables are very nice - my son doesn't complain about going and it's building his confidence in math. Having no homework is also a plus. Both my son and I are happy with the program.

We don't have a lot of options living in HMB. The convenience of having the Laurelwood Mathnasium made it easier for us to get our son to tutoring. His grade in math increased as well as his confidence. He enjoyed the rewards and the tutors. They made learning fun. Thank you!

Jadlyn and Emily were so welcoming and helpful from the first moment I found them! It has been a wonderful experience for my 6th grader. We’ve been so appreciative of their attention and flexibility. The tutors have been extremely helpful in explaining what is needed. Thank you!

I already recommended Mathnasium to two people who ended up signing up (one at Laurelwood and one in Foster City), because my son Daniel started Mathnasium last year (Oct 2016) and it helped a lot. He had to cover a lot of material at his school because he moved to a school that was one year ahead in math. At first, Daniel was “frozen” from the pressure but the very next week after signing up for Mathnasium his attitude was more relaxed and he started getting >=90% in his tests and though his homework would still take a longer time, he got things done. So, thank you!!! We will continue coming & recommending!

My kids loved mathnasium and my daughter is definitely more confident in math. For my son, the summer program reinforced basic information to make sure he had a solid foundation going into 6th grade. For the summer program it would have been better if there were hours to come in the morning. I felt like only being able to come into the afternoon was very limiting and made it inconvenient to find a time to come. Also, would love to continue with the mathnasium but the price is so expensive for 2 siblings. Other than that, I would highly recommend and I have recommended to several families that have joined.

Thank you for the support provided to our student. We appreciate your flexibility in scheduling visits, and the willingness to accommodate specific requests regarding material covered (within reason). It was great to know your staff is all well-trained; our child enjoyed working with them all.

Received my daughter's state test result this month and her score was much higher than last year. She has so much confidence in math now. I am very proud of her. It was the best choice I made in an afterschool program for her. Thank you Mathnasium!!!

we've been so happy. the kids math knowledge has improved. scheduling is easy (though it's getting harder and harder to find a time because Mathnasium is so popular). I LOVE the level of feedback I get with assessments. The staff are always available. They even gave us a binder of concepts to work on during our trip abroad. I've recommended you to all the moms I know.

Jadelyn is great to talk to. She spent a lot of time going over my child's entry exam which I appreciated. She is responsive when I need help with scheduleing. She is calm and professional. My son likes the advisor he works with there

Jadelyn, Yuta, and Tuk have been wonderful leaders at Mathnasium-Laurelwood. They have been nothing but available, approachable, flexible, and accommodating to my family. Jadelyn is open to working out ways to help satisfy whatever the specific needs of my children are at that time. As a parent, I also LOVE how flexible and easy the scheduling is, and how being in Mathnasium does not add to my kids' homework load.
My son, who already has a good grasp on math, has been able to advance beyond his grade level. My daughter, who needed more help, has flourished under Mathnasmium's care. She has excelled in her first year at middle school, and I know a good part of her success in math has to do with Mathnasium. Both of my kids tell me that they have liked all of the instructors they have had there. Of course, they have their favorites, but if those people aren't available, they are completely comfortable going to someone else's group.

I routinely recommend Mathnasium to fellow parents. We have had SUCH A WONDERFUL experience. The administrators and instructors are extremely friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. My kids actually enjoy attending class. Moreover, teachers are willing to help with homework and prep the kids for tests. Mathnasium has been such a great asset. We are grateful to be part of the Mathnasium family!

Mathnasium is exactly the place I was looking for to help get my daughter, who hates math, the extra support she needs! What I love the most is that Mathnasium doesn't seek to compete with school curriculum. Mathnasium helps solidify gaps in understanding that schools don't fully address due to the over ambitious curriculum they have set. I also love that kids are rewarded with prizes! What a great way to build a positive association with math!

The program has been a great benefit to not only reinforce what our kids are learning in school but enhance those areas that they are not receiving.
The staff is great to work with as a parent and our kids are motivated by the approach.

My daughter is very happy going to Mathnasium. She is learning and understanding what she is doing. She likes the teachers. The opportunity to earn prizes and the raffles keep my daughter highly motivated.
Also, I have had nothing but positive experiences with Jadelyn and Thuc. I am always amazed they have time to answer phone calls, sit with parents for one-on-ones, and teach/evaluate the kids. They never seem rushed or abrupt, and I feel I have their complete attention when we speak.

Mathnasium has been great for my son--he has firmed up his previous math skills and made a ton of progress learning new ones; he's also gotten accustomed to focusing on math problems for extended periods of time and learned not to let mistakes get him down. Thank you for all your help and for being so kind and upbeat that going to Mathnasium is never something to dread!

So far, the kids have improved their attitude towards math, and seen more clearly where they stand --which motivates them to improve. I love that the program allows for student differences in level and learning style.

My sons absolutely love coming there. I'm not sure what your staff does to make math so fun but my boys are athletes not schoarlors and they ask to go every Tuesday and Friday.

Super easy to schedule sessions
Transparency in checking the growth/progress of the child
Very friendly with children but also in the meantime strict and rigourous team members!
Math made fun to kids!
Ample accommodations to family members who are waiting during sessions
Pleasant books and toys to use during wait time
Sometimes it seems to be a little expensive. It is worth while for sure, but still, for families with one income, it is hard to afford.
Improvements:
Restroom could be a little more clean
But hard to do with so many kids using restroom! :)

Mathnasium has been very accommodating for all our needs in regard to our children's schedules. We can't thank the staff enough for all their hard work in getting our children up to speed and helping their academic self-esteem.
